EDUCATION: THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY

  
Ok, so I will be hitting the books again in the fall. 

The GOOD thing is I finally got into the Pharmacy Tech program, which I have been on a waiting list for the last three years.

The BAD part is I had to take a math placement test and I am pretty sure I will be taking a refresher class on mathematics this summer.  Ya, I am sure a 33% on the test seals the deal.  (In my defense though, the test was NOTHING like the practice test.)  I spent two solid days reviewing fractions, percentages, and decimals and the majority of the test was on multiplying, dividing and adding negative numbers and formulas that didn't even ring a bell.

The UGLY part is it will be full time studying for the next year.  You have to understand, I am OLD and my brain doesn't  retain like it used to.  I am pretty sure my brain resembles Swiss cheese, lots of holes for things to slip through.  It should be fun.

(P.S. Please keep me in your prayers.)

...To the flag

I love how this canvas turned out. 
 I am thinking I need to display it year 'round, I am in just that kind of mood.

TELL IT LIKE IT IS TUESDAY

It's time once again for Tell I Like It Is Tuesday.

What's on your mind?
Something bothering you that you just can't say to someone because it would cause more problems?
Here is the place to let it rip.  Just let it go in the comments section.   I promise that you will feel better to just let it go.  You can post anonymously if you like.
